Making just his second Major League start, Phil Hughes had a no-hitter through 6 1/3 innings but was forced to leave a chance at history on the table when he sustained a left hamstring injury that may sideline him 4-6 weeks.

The Rangers avoided becoming the 11th team in history to be no-hit twice in a season when Hank Blalock doubled in the eighth inning, but they managed little else. Kameron Loe allowed 10 hits in four-plus innings, setting the tone for the Rangers' eighth straight loss to the Yankees in Arlington.
